"Pope Francis' Unusual Actions During Palm Sunday Mass Raise Concerns"

Pope Francis unexpectedly skipped delivering his homily during the Palm Sunday Mass service at the Vatican, marking the beginning of Holy Week, due to recent health issues. Despite not giving a homily, he presided over the service, prayed for Ukraine and victims of the Moscow concert hall shooting, and greeted the crowd from his wheelchair. His decision to skip the homily was a surprise as it's the first time he has not given a homily on Palm Sunday. He has been battling bouts of bronchitis, cold, and flu over the winter months, and will continue with an intense schedule for Holy Week and Easter.
